COMPOUND OXYGEN.
1HE BENEFIT DERIVED FROM ISHALArro

IHE BENEFIT DERIVED FROM INHALATION
In the Circle of Sciences we read this sen.
tence: The general effect of oxygen in
nature is that of a life-giviag principle"
Ever since the discovery of oxygen by
Priestly, has this idea been unpermosr In
the mind medical, for. since respiration is
the process of administering oxygen 10 the
tissues OF the body through the agency of
the blood land in the lungs, purifying the
life blood) the thought iLstiuctively pops
into the mind that If. in cases of disease or
imperfect oxygenation. we could help the
lungs to more than their usual amount of
oxygen. we would be welding a weapon of
vast remedial effectiveness.
Practical experience shows this theory to
be corr, ct. and never have we seen a ease
of Asthma. Bronchitis, Consumption or
General Debility. that the inhalations, ID -op.
erly administered. failed to relieve more or
less. Tis true that Consumption in the
third stage. can only be relieved except In
rare instances. but our relief, founded
upon experience. is that every case can be
cured in the first stage. and the large ma
jority in the second stage, climatic infiu-
ences being favorable.
The home treatment can ben sent per
express to any address.

Three Hundred Helpless Slaves Sacrificed
to Save Slaver's Life

The other day heard story from
sea captain who has been all over the
world, and finally settled near Atlanta,
Ga, the best he says he has ever 'ound.
Among the sealilring men he knew be-
fore the war was captain that had been
SLAYER. Once he had Il cargo Of 300
slaves sailing with them from OH the
coast of Africa to Cuba. After few days
sail he saw he was chased by Il man-of-
war If he wrs caught with the slaves
penalty was death for him and his crew
And his cargo was worth S2O0,0O0, So,
he had two incentives to get away, and
made his preparations for either event
escape or capture.
lie hung the heavy iron cable or chain
that holds the anchorall around the hull
of his vessel on the outside just below
the edge Of the deck. 1t was held up by
some cleats. These cables are 50 heavy
that a man can lift only about two feet
of one Then he had the 300 naked
negfocs brought out on deck and each
ones wrists crossed and tied fast They
were then placed along the gunwales,
facing outward and leaning over, and Il
strong cord fastened the hands of each
one to this heavy iron cable just below
them on the outside,
Then the captain waited the result of
the race. lie had on every stitch of
canvas his poles could carry. If lac
could run till dark he hoped to dodge
the steamship and be ont of sight before
another day. But the sun did not 20
down fast enough and the steamship
came on too fast. There was, ut least
no hope Of escape. The crew stood ready
with axes; the captain raised his hand
and in an instant every cleat was knock
ed loosc.-rherc was IL sudden jerk, over
went the negroes; there was for an in
slant f'ingc of COO black heels in the
air, and cable and negroes were gone to
the bottom.
Commodore Maury says the pressure
of wafer at great depths is such that
fishes cannot 60 there to dcvour any
chemical decomposition cannot take
place. So these negroes are down there
yet, still tied in circle to that iron cable
with their heads down and their heels
up in the eternal stiffness of those
depths As soon as the man-oi-war
came, up a lieutenant boardercd the
SLAYER and found plenty Of signs of
negroes, but not single slave. And
the captain was no arrested
lie soon had another cargo Of negroes,
which he this time successfully landed
and sold in Cuba On his return to
Boston, however, he and his mate fell
out and the mate told on him. The
captain ran away to Cuba and was not
prosecuted. Aner while his friends
succeeded in getting pardon for him
from the. President, and he returned to
Boston where he now resides wealthy,

Church, at Washington, D. G., lecturcl
before Il small audience in Casley Hall.
His subject was, "The Religious Life and

1t is a lamentable fact that no lecturer,
however eminent or gifted can secure

strange, but the citizens do not seem to
care for the higher literary efforts from
